| Huckabee's Theology Answer to CBN Causing Stir |
| 2007-12-16 |
The bright lights just keep getting brighter for Mike Huckabee. Now he's being asked about something he told us here at CBN last month. Political producer Robin Mazyck asked him a question about fighting the war on terror and here was his answer:"I'm as strong on terror as anybody. In fact I think I'm stronger than most people because I truly understand the nature of the war that we are in with Islamofascism. These are people that want to kill us. It's a theocratic war. And I don't know if anybody fully understands that. I'm the only guy on that stage with a theology degree. I think I understand it really well."Well, it turns out that technically, Mike Huckabee doesn't have a theology degree. He was asked about that at a news conference in New Hampshire today. "I have a bachelor of arts in religion and a minor in communications in my undergraduate work. And then I have 46 hours on a master's degree at Southwestern Theology Seminary. So, my degree as a theological degree is at the college level and then 46 hours toward a masters -- three years of study of New Testament Greek, and then the rest of it, all in Seminary was theological studies, but my degree was actually in religion." |

| #4 It conveniently leaves out the NET TAX INCREASE of 47 million above and beyond the cuts. Typical F*ckabee - lying by omission. And what about all the corruption - he accepted hundred thousand dollars in "givts" and the peopel that gave him gifts ended up with political appointments. Didn't we learn ANYTHING about electing lying crooked populists from Hope Arkansas? |

| #3 Don't know what all the hype is about, he hasn't said one gd thing to increase my positive interest in him. Still smells like Arkansas Politics to me. |

| #2 Huckabee seems to believe that devotion to Christianity should be a prerequisite for being America's president, a total non-starter for myself and fellow secularists. We have more respect for Mitt Romney who recognizes the necessity of maintaining the barrier between the personal and the professional. |

| #1 From his web site. You dicide. In total, Huckabee cut taxes and fees over 90 times during his ten and a half years as governor, saving the people of Arkansas almost $380 million. When he left office, Arkansas had over $800 million in state surplus, which he believes should go back to the people in the form of either a tax rebate or tax cut. |
